1) A student who has been designated as
intellectually superior by their board of educators.
2) A student who is enrolled in gifted classes.
3) A student considered by their peers to be smart.
Gifties are characterized by their
odd senses of humor, strange hobbies, strange
relationships with their peers, an ability to tell whether or not another person is gifted by talking to them, and a general rivalry with students recieving normal educations, or "normies".
Gifties are, needless to say, often considered "wierd" for their personalities. Personality traits of gifties vary from person to person, and can include
perfectionism, depression, extreme happiness (often to the slight disturbance of others), antisocial tendencies, rebellious behaviour, creativity,
uncontrollable energy, spontaneous outbursts, an inability to concentrate, and (most common) hyperactivity.
Contrary to popular belief, gifties often do not succeed in school and do not neccesarily care about their education. Many gifties recieve poor grades, are disorganized, disrupt classes, and may have great difficulty in a certain subject area.
Gifties are a small portion of the population, and prefer to stick with each other rather than the rest of the population, often impatient with ways of society that may seem unimportant, unfair or unneccesary to them.
